SFG Finance recently launched a new loyalty program to help dealers thrive in todays competitive environment by utilizing top companies in the industry that are the best at what they do. The program provides a real value-add and we are delighted to have an industry leader such as PassTime USA be associated with our program, said SFG Finance COO Henry Gonzalez.

SFG Finances National Subprime Loan Portfolio Program purchases performing vehicle loans, providing needed capital and allowing dealers to achieve greater liquidity in their business ventures. Additionally, sellers of portfolios will be provided a credit toward the purchase of PassTime devices. We feel by helping a dealer purchase an item they need, and are already using, we add value to their bottom line, Gonzalez stated.

PassTime USA offers GPS tracking and its own Automated Collection Technology (ACT) solutions to its customers in the BHPH and subprime finance industry. Its wide range of products and services, superior 24/7 live customer support, and industry expertise provide customers with a complete package for protecting their assets and managing their portfolios.

“We are very excited about being selected as SFGs preferred vendor for their new program,” said Jake Frank, co-founder of PassTime. “The ability to provide access to a company that specializes in buying BHPH portfolios is another valuable addition to the array of solutions we provide our customers.

SFG Finances recently launched program purchases existing near prime, subprime, and BHPH auto loan portfolios from franchised and independent auto dealers, as well as finance companies. Portfolio sizes range from $ 500,000 to $ 150 million, are held on the balance sheet and serviced internally.

The program is highly efficient with a seven to ten day total turnaround from analysis to closing, and will target accounts with as little as 30 day seasoning. Since its inception SFG Finance has actively purchased and closed portfolios from dealers and finance companies in more than 30 states.

Funding for the program is made possible by SFGs parent bank, with the additional advantage of a more stable cost of funds and without the need to securitize. SFG Finance offers complete transparency and up-front pricing based upon its superior analytics. A due diligence team will evaluate all loans in order to maximize the selling dealers return without interrupting the dealerships existing business, ensuring a seamless transition.
